What is insane is the left says we should be more like Sweden. When you agree and say we should do vouchers, they melt down. We spend way too much money on education with poor results. Too much ideology in public schools and not enough education. Back when my kid was in high school; they kept going on about sex , gender and how republicans are bad. The school academics were horrible. We pulled her out and put her in a private school. Her standardized testing scores sky rocketed up. Best thing we ever did.
Comment on Florida’s private school vouchers soar, creating concern over impact on public schools
jimbolauski@lemm.ee 5 weeks agoThe cost per pupil for a k-12 education is almost twice as much in public schools vs private. Twice the money and half the results.
Why do you want to waste money on a failing system?

Who has spoken about Sweden besides you?
My kids spend more time with me then at school and they have a solid foundation and an ability to think critically, I’m not afraid of any scary knowledge they might learn from school, friends, the internet or any other source that I wouldn’t be able to control the rest of their lives and wouldn’t want to anyways.

The left never says we should be more like Sweden?
Who said anything about scary knowledge? It’s the lack of focus on academics.

It’s really hard to have a conversation with you when you skip past anything I say.

They don’t teach that Republicans are bad. They figure that out for themselves using critical thinking since they’re not indoctrinated with all that “god” bs in school.

Not that was an actual class lesson. Packed her ass up and sent her to a private school.
P00ptart@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
No it wasn’t. Just because you took offense to historical accuracy, doesn’t mean that there was some specific lesson plan to say Republicans are bad.

Do you have a source to back up this claim because it’s completely reversed from anything I’ve seen and I’d like to understand it better.

Ohio is spending more per pupil in 2024, they are above $14,000 but I’m having trouble finding the report. The trend is still the same it’s significantly more to educate a kid in public school.
